Suggest a Feature

It is a nice feature that I can lock / Unlock or hide / unhide Screen by hover any screen name on side bar. but For now this feature overlap screen name so it not visible properly. instead we can add a background under Lock or hide so that user can see them properly.

SSO should be a built-in feature for any SaaS provider, and should be considered a security minimum. By locking SSO behind a paywall, you’re telling customers you only care about their security if they’re willing to pay extra. In 2024 SSO should be a security baseline and an offering at any tier. I sincerely hope Figma considers reworking their plans in the future.

When I’m using multi-edit variants, I’d like feedback (e.g. snackbar at the bottom) showing how many elements were selected. Sometimes I’m worried that there are selected elements that I didn’t intend to modify, so I have to zoom out and do a quick scan to see if anything else was selected. For large files, it’s hard to tell what’s selected and what’s not.

Ever since the properties have ben added to components, it has been a great improvement in my workflow. Especially the fact that I can select multiple instances and change a propery for all of them in just one go. Hallelujah! However when I’m using the “expose properties from nested instances”, the nested properties are shown when selecting 1 instances, but when I select multiple, they disappear.

Can we please optimize this? Or at least make them all work with Shift + Click? (Just noticed I forgot color variables) Thanks, team! You’re awesome, hope you can find a solution.

It would be awesome if sections didn’t act like frames, but more like a hybrid of a group and a frame, with the ability to grow with their child contents. It’s v annoying to have to keep resizing them, when they’re really just best for a visual or prototype container. I know they get bigger if you cmd+d duplicate a child node, but it would be great if it was always a thing. Not autolayout, just like a group with some padding.

Hello I use Figma for my print tasks, because InDesign is just horrible to use. And sometimes I have to use more big sizes. I would like we have: A0 A1 A2 A3 in adition of A4 A5 A6 Thank you !

I noticed that Truncate Text has two options… None Truncate at end of line Could you add Truncate Middle/Center of a text style… that would be amazing.

Can we have option to link layers? so that we can resize those layers together

I would love to see an option for browsers frame in prototype device (like chrome, FireFox, etc…). The browser frame size can be modified to a specific size, this option can be added to “Custom Size” with a drop down to choose the desired browser.

Hi Figma, Probably been shared before, but I would really love it if the aspect ratio lock that you already have would also work in auto layout. It is a lot of work to have to go and resize everything manually.

My drawing contains pixel images. When I export it as a PDF the quality of the pixel images is compromised by lossy compression. I can’t find where to switch off the lossy compression that appears to be on by default when exporting to PDF.

“Shift + D” is very easy to press and similiar to other high-prioirty keyboard shortcut (“Shift+[Character]” in context of Figma’s shortcut scheme, yet switching back and forth between Dev Mode and Design Mode doesn’t necessarily need such quick or frequent access, comparatively. Furthermore, Figma’s keyboard shortcut cannot be overidden because the key binding is simply “Shift + [Character]”, which is disallowed as a keyboard shortcut under the MacOS system. It’s too easy to hit inadvertently and becomes a workflow distraction cost unequal to its benefit.

Cuando quiero cambiar la búsqueda, me costó como 6 segundos encontrar el componente. LoviU ✨ PD: And when I wanted to attach the image here, I think that upload icon is not associated with a text editor.

Leverage variables or even some kind of AI to provide a UI element that allows to tick a box like “Generate Dark Mode for All Screens” and of course let them be modifiable once generated.

Currently to create a single variable, one has to click the Create variable button and then click again to select a variable type. This is two clicks. As you can imagine, after creating a handful of variables this gets tedious fast. Given there seems to be sufficient real estate to add dedicated buttons for each variable type it be great if one could just click a single button to create a variable. Better yet, it’d be great if there was a keyboard shortcut for creating each variable type or some hotkey that automatically creates the same type of variable right after the previous one.

Can we add a way to check spelling in comments? Maybe Grammarly integration?

I use Shift + I for Plugins and Components pretty equally, so it’s frustrating having to add extra steps to get to the panel I’m trying to search. Plugins are meant to simplify my workflow, but grouping them with different use cases adds an extra step.

Sometimes, there are just too many comments. Can’t delete them because I or the team members might need them later on. It’s like GitHub commits. But, if I happen to search for a specific comment, it’s very time-consuming. Instead, we could just star the comment which will surely be needed later. Showing the star in both the comments list and comments on the artboard will be better. Maybe just add a filter to the comments list, and add a golden outline to the comment icon for the artboard.

I just went to the Figma support center and didnt notice any links or navigation to the support forum. I think it would be great to add some mention of the support forum in the help center and the community portal. I was only able to find the support forum from google search.

Like in 3 times out of 10 instead of change layer visibility I scroll. Getting little annoying. 8px gab is all I need.

Every time I add a new fill it automatically adds a linear gradient #fff. Each time I add a new drop shadow it automatically adds a blur of 4, #000 opacity of 25%, y value 4 etc. I have to go in each time and change the default values. Ex.) Change the linear gradient to an image or a solid fill. Or change the drop shadow to 0 blur, #000 opacity 50% etc. It would be very helpful to set these default values to your preferred defaults or even a layer style component. Ex. Effect Styles, Colour Styles, etc. This would remove a lot of tedious and repetitive editing of default values since the default is now custom to your workflow.

Dear Figma Team, Currently, when an element is locked in Figma, it poses a significant challenge to easily unlock and manipulate it thereafter. This results in a frustrating experience for users, as it becomes cumbersome to locate and manage locked elements once they are locked. I propose implementing a feature that allows users to easily select and unlock locked elements with minimal effort. This could be achieved through one of the following methods: 1. Right-click functionality: Enable users to right-click on a locked element and unlock it directly from the context menu. 2. Keyboard shortcut: We continue with the keyboard shortcut Cmd + Shift + L to quickly toggle the lock status of selected elements. 3. Lock icon indicator: Display a small lock icon near locked elements, allowing users to click on it to unlock them. The key differentiator with this proposed improvement is that although locked elements can still be selected, they will remain immovable and unaffected by global action

I’m currently prototyping a mobile bottom sheet, and I can only set the drag interaction to expand and collapse it. I would love another option to add a swiping down on the sheet so the user can dismiss the sheet completely, whether it’s in an expanded or collapsed view. Thank you!

Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this Can’t use certain emojis (🫀🪴🧡) as they do not show up in the Figma design file. But the emojis are displayed appropriately in the Layers sidebar. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.) Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation Anybody else having the same problem?
